Gluten Free Chocolate Cake


tabasco32

Recommended Posts

tabasco32 Apprentice

1 pound semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped

1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes, plus 1/2 tablespoon

1/4 cup Kahlua

8 large eggs

1/4 cup sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/2 teaspoon salt

Confectioners' sugar or cocoa powder, for garnish

Fresh raspberries, for garnish

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

Using 1/2 tablespoon butter grease a 9-inch springform pan and line bottom with a parchment round. Cover pan underneath and along sides with foil and set in a roasting pan. Bring a medium saucepan of water to boil.

Combine the chocolate, butter, and Kahlua in a metal bowl set over simmering water or in the top of a double boiler. Melt the mixture, stirring constantly, until smooth and creamy, about 5 minutes; reserve.

Meanwhile combine eggs, sugar, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl and whisk with an electric mixer until frothy and almost doubled in volume, about 5 to 10 minutes. Fold 1/3 of egg mixture into chocolate mixture using a rubber spatula. Repeat this process 2 more times

Wow! Thank you. I was just thinking that I need to try another recipe. My son's first B-day party since the diagnosis is coming up in six weeks, and I'm trying to find the best cake recipe! The gluten-free mixes are so expensive and you usually get less than a regular mix.

I intend to try this chocolate cake recipe because it sounds really yummy. But, I have to mention that Namaste cake mixes make an 8-1/2 by 11 cake pan, 2 layer cake or 24 cupcakes and the Whole Foods in my area sells them for around $5.99. Their Spice Cake is terriffic, their chocolate cake is really good too. Their Vanilla cake has specks in it because they use real vanilla bean.

Yes, it's more expensive than regular but you get more than you do with any other gluten-free cake mixe that I've found and I haven't found any mixes with better taste or texture.

I tried this recipe and it was really good. It's very rich, it's like a mousse cake, and it just melts in your mouth. Highly recommended!

Oh, that might be the reason I gained a few pounds while at Disney......

      You might also be sensitive to other things while you are healing. Dairy, for example. It won't harm you from a celiac standpoint but is inflammatory and could be bothering you. Have you been keeping a food & symptom journal? Might be worth it for a week to see if you notice something you are eating prior to the times you feel your worst. I hope you start feeling better soon.

      Someone recently recommended Superfoods for looking up recipes free of allergens or intolerances.  It's a web site but there's also an app.
    • lmemsm
      Open Food Facts is a free food database: https://world.openfoodfacts.org/discover  There's an app to access it which is also free (with no in app commercials).   You can use it to look up information about foods such as ingredients, Nova score (to help avoid ultra processed foods), environmental impact and nutritional scores, allergy related information and more.  It can scan a product's barcodes and bring up relevant information about that product.  The project relies on volunteers to share information about products.  We can add information on our favorite gluten free products to share with each other.  It has several gluten free items in the database already:  https://world.openfoodfacts.org/cgi/search.pl?search_terms=gluten+free&search_simple=1&action=process  I think it could make a great tool for people with celiac.

      You could try white willow bark, but make sure it's in a safe dosage range.  Herbs aren't regulated the way prescriptions are.  White willow bark works a lot like aspirin but is often milder on the stomach.  I used to use Nature's Way white willow bark.  I was told it was corn free at that time.  Double check with the manufacturer to make sure it's free of any of any allergens you're concerned with.

      Be sure to bring this up with your doctor, as there is always the possibility that you've got other issues besides celiac disease.
